I'm sorry - I read the initial email incorrectly. Anyway, bonding would allow you to configure multiple NICs to utilize the same IP address and not the other way around.
The other (the best) option is to use a virtual interface, i.e. "ifcfg-eth:x" where "x" is a unique number. You can define the interface just like you would any physical device within the "ifcfg-eth0:0"
Sorry for my earlier misunderstanding.
cheers,

Hi：I know both ifconfig or ip addr add command can add mutil IP address on same NIC and Ip addr add is recommanded because interface alias is easy to cause confusion。May question is how configure the network related files, such as ifcfg-eth0 file to let mutil IPs can be attached on same NIC. I know one way is use the interface alias to configure the ifcfg-eth0:1 file. But it is same as to use ifconfig command to add another IP address on interface with alias. How to configure the network related file to add mutil IP address on same NIC which same as to use IP addr add command?BrShark
